Cloudyn stepped into spring releasing an offering that addresses the increasing challenge facing enterprises and their need to regain control of and optimize their cloud deployments.

Aimed at finance and IT groups, the solution offers large companies one view across multiple business units into cloud usage, cost drivers and resource allocation, providing actionable recommendations for enhancing utilization, increasing performance and reducing spend.

C-level executives of large enterprises, with several line-of-business units and complex cloud deployments, currently lack insight into departmental or user-based cloud activities. This lack of insight makes it very complicated for a company’s finance group to apply appropriate chargebacks and accurately identify areas most in need of cost and performance optimization.

Product features include:

One view across multiple business units. Provides top-level management with across-the-board insights and an aggregated view of their entire cloud deployment. Areas in need of optimization are easily identified.

Customized access and chargeback self-serve. Management can assign business units with unique views to specific cloud accounts relevant to them, so they can manage and optimize their own usage and cost.

Cost entity definition. Finance teams and/or IT and unit managers can break down and attribute costs to any relevant business unit, cost center or other “cost entities” (e.g., projects, teams, stacks within a business unit, etc.). They can also determine exactly which business units are driving cloud costs and how.
